Samudra Manthan (el. knyga) (skaityta knyga) | C. Raja Mohan | knygos.lt

Aprašymas

Rising China and emerging India are becoming major maritime powers. As they build large navies to secure their growing interests, both nations are roiling the waters of the Indo-Pacific --the vast littoral stretching from Africa to Australasia.

Invoking a tale from Hindu mythology -- "Samudra Manthan" or "to churn the ocean" --C. Raja Mohan tells the story of a Sino-Indian rivalry spilling over from the Great Himalayas into the Indian and Pacific Oceans. He examines the prospects of mitigating the tensions and constructing a stable Indo-Pacific order.

America, the dominant power in the area, is being drawn into the unfolding Sino-Indian competition. Despite the huge differences in the current naval capabilities of China, India, and the United States, Mohan argues that the three countries are locked in a triangular struggle destined to mold the future Indo-Pacific.
